React is not a complete framework more of a templating engine and nothing more, it allows you to use any state management you want. It also makes it easy to add to existing projects without requiring rewrite of everything from the ground up.

The downside of this is that it's often the complete wild west when building and doing maintenance. It's not uncommon to end up with wildly different state management solutions in every project because the prevailing winds change so frequently. This can have a big effect on productivity and morale. It's one of the main reasons I'm trying to get out of programming for my profession. I'm so fucking tired of having to chase the flavor of the month.
